Mine Your Own Business

Taking place in a abandon town, the gang try to investigate a mystery why a 150 year old miner is haunting a town. This is an underrated episode. I been understand why some people say it's a weak episode. Likely because of the villain just being an old man with a long beard. I still think it's really entertaining. The Miner 49er is a very interesting villain. The setting and the atmosphere in this episode are so good. It makes the episode more creepy. Also the Miner in the show has a really great moan. It sounds so creepy, you can understand why the gang gets creeped out.

Overall a excellent episode. 10/10

Another classic Scooby Doo episode. The plot has the gang traveling to gold city, a city that they discover has been mostly abandoned. When the gang arrives, they are told by an old innkeeper to leave, because the town is apparently being haunted by a 150-year old miner. Obviously they don't listen, and decide to check out the town, to find out what's going on.

Great creepy atmosphere in this episode (I couldn't expect less from a ghost town). The miner's moan is certainly freaky, and the reveal at the end isn't that blatant. I especially love the scene where Scooby pretends to be sound like a train in order to lure the Miner to the trap (definitely one of the most creative traps in the series).

Scooby and Shaggy have a couple of funny moments in this episode as well.

9 / 10

Scooby Doo, Where Are You!

S1E4: Mine Your Own Business (1969)

The gang shows up at an abandoned town where they learn about the ghost of a miner from 1849. This ghost is scaring off all the people so the gang decides to investigate and see what's really going on. The fourth episode is far from a classic but it's certainly highly entertaining and features plenty of funny moments. The highlight has to be a sequence inside the mine where the gang is trying to get Scooby into an elevator and of course it comes down to some Scooby snacks. Another highlight happens when the gang finally gets a plan to trap the miner and it involves Scooby and a train. The villain this time out is basically just an old man with a beard so he's not all that memorable but he's still enjoyable. The setting of the deserted town makes for some rich atmosphere, which is another plus.

Episode: B+

Great episode iam actually watching it right now! Miss my childhood! Velma is Still my Fave lol!

"Showdown in Ghost Town" a Scooby computer game is loosely based on this episode, I think. It starts out in a tavern which has a player-piano. It also has a mining car ride with hills, twists and turns. I am in my late 30's, and I still love watching these shows! My whole family loves Scooby! Sometimes, we have a Scooby marathon and watch the Scooby series shows and movies. I really hope that more Scooby shows and movies will be made in the future. I also agree with other viewers that Scrappy was an annoying character, and I am glad that the recent shows and movies have excluded Scrappy. The actors and actresses who have taken over the main characters' voice-overs have done excellent jobs at immitating the original cast members!
